It is correct, not cowardly. I made an edit to hopefully clear any further confusion. I very much dislike the “coward” polemic from anyone calling themselves radical or revolutionary (hah!) when I know they all pulled the mask off along with everyone else years ago. That is cowardice.
The revolution is on its tenth COVID reinfection, struggling to climb a flight of stairs.
Are you still wearing a mask in public spaces? Is anyone in your org? Talk to me about cowardice.
e. to make myself absolutely clear, how seriously do you take COVID, and if prevention via mandatory respirators at any demonstration or meeting is not the expected bare minimum conduct, why not? What world do you think you are building? If this is not up there with climate action on your itinerary, any world you imagine is not equitable. It is not sustainable. It is certainly not revolutionary.
95% of Americans won’t wear masks during an active pandemic of an airborne pathogen for which the only legitimate cure at present is prevention. Commiting to a level of hygiene annoyance which is less than a maxi pad was too much for us as a society. Forgive me for rolling my eyes.
I don’t see how the two are related at all. One hallucinates more-or-less-fingered things and is used cynically for profit motive regardless and the other is a gag about a common and intentional stylistic choice in many cartoons.
Even that started as “abolish the police.” That was too radical, so they went with “defund the police.” That, too, was too radical, and turned into “fund them more, but include sensitivity training.” The sensitivity training was not included; too radical.
It is truly impossible to make any kind of prediction for what will happen in the US because of this. I think a lot of people not from here don’t realize how bad it actually is. It’s really, really bad.
My heart dropped reading this. She died as her husband held her, and for absolutely nothing. What an utterly evil, sick place this pit of a country is.
